SPELLING EDITED O-9. THE DAYS OF THE FLESH OF JESUS! The purpose of the study is to take a closer look at the Scripture to see who Jesus WAS DURING the days of his FLESH. Let us begin by reading John 1:1-4 from the literal translation. I will go ahead and write it out and then you can check it out for yourself by clicking on the link LITERAL translation so you can make sure I copied all the words correctly. Now, I will EMPHASIZE the words that came out to ME while reading the Scriptures. You yourself may see other words that speak to you that may or may not change the meaning as to HOW you yourself interpret these words. All I am saying is that when I myself read the literal translation the words that I emphasize jumped out at me confirming what the Holy Spirit had already been showing me. And what the Holy Spirit was already showing me was that the Word in John 1:1 is NOT a separated co-eternal divine person who was always with God in eternity past. John 1:1-4 from the LITERAL. “In original was the SAYING and the SAYING was TOWARD THE God and God was the SAYING. 2. THIS was in original TOWARD THE God. 3. All through SAME became and apart from SAME became not yet one which has become. 4. In SAME was life and the life was the light of the humans.” The first thing that came out to me was that the Greek word “logos” translated in almost every other Bible as “Word” with a capital “W” literally means the SAYING of God. And we know from the creation account in Genesis 1:3 that God SPOKE creation into being. In other words, just like John 1:1-4 teaches that “...through SAME became and apart from SAME became not yet one which has become.” To say this another way, Almighty God Himself alone and by Himself created all things through His own spoken SAYING that came forth out from His own MOUTH. And apart from or without God speaking forth His SAYING not yet a single thing was created. And God SAID, Let there be LIGHT and there was LIGHT. Genesis 1:3. “And God SAID, Let there be light: and there was light.” And we know that there is both physical light and also the light which means symbolically that which is good, righteous, and so forth compared to darkness being bad, evil, hating the light. Jesus is the LIGHT of the world. But yet the Light was PROPHESIED to come into existence in the future. God was in the PROCESS of SEPARATING the light from the darkness, as in, God is still yet in the process of separating the good from the evil. Now when we go down to verse 14 here in John chapter 1 we see that it was the SAYING that became FLESH. John 1:14a from the LITERAL translation. “And the SAYING FLESH became…” Now let us read the same verses from the Tyndale translation, which came before the King James Version of the Bible. John 1:1-4. “In the beginnynge was the worde and the worde was with God: and the worde was God. 2. The SAME was in the beginnynge with God. 3. All thinges were made by IT and with out IT was made nothinge that was made. 4. IN IT was lyfe and the lyfe was ye lyght of men.” This time we see that the Greek word “logos” is translated in Old English as “worde”, but please notice the pronoun use referring back to the “logos”, the word, the SAYING is the pronoun “IT” as opposed to being the pronoun “he” in the King James Version. The Greek word “logos” is Strong's #3056 and it is translated in the King James Bible as word [175 times], words [48 times], saying [34 times], sayings [16 times], account [8 times], speech [8 times] and so forth and always means SPEECH and the written word of God, but never means a person. But yet most Bibles beginning with the King James translation forward, capitalize the Greek word “logos” translated as word as “Word” with a capital “W” seven times. Three times in John 1:1, one time in John 1:14, one time in 1 John 1:1, one time in 1 John 5:7, and one time in Revelation 19:13. To ME, this is misleading and, therefore, Christians are being dogmatically told that the Word in John 1:1 with a capital “W” is Jesus which leaves the impression that Jesus was with God in the beginning at the Father’s side and Jesus was God. And some Christians take that assumption or interpretation of the Word as being a separate person named Jesus to mean that if Jesus was God in the beginning, then Jesus IS God now, as in, Jesus is one and the self-same being as Yahweh the one true and only Almighty God Himself. Remember the title, and purpose of this study is to learn directly from the Bible ITSELF who Jesus WAS DURING the days of his FLESH and not who Jesus IS NOW after the cross and being highly exalted by the Father as we read in Philippians 2:8-11. Philippians 2: 8-11. “And being found in fashion as a MAN, he humbled himself and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9. WHEREFORE (Or for this very REASON of the Son of MAN becoming obedient to his God and Father to suffer and die on the cross) God also has HIGHLY EXALTED him, and gave him a NAME which is above every name: 10. That (Or so that or in order that) at the NAME of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11. And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, TO THE GLORY OF God the Father.” Now let us go to the Old Testament and read Isaiah 55:8-11. “For my THOUGHTS are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, says the LORD. 9. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my THOUGHTS than your thoughts. 10. For AS the RAIN COMES DOWN, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but waters the earth, and makes it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: 11. So shall my word be that goes forth out of my MOUTH: IT shall not return unto me void, but IT shall accomplish that which I please, and IT shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent IT.” Now, this is a hidden prophecy of the yet coming Messiah coming down from heaven like the RAIN. Remember the manna falling from heaven like the rain as bread to eat? Jesus was comparing himself as BREAD coming down from heaven like the MANNA came down from heaven. Jesus was not a LITERAL loaf of bread. But rather, bread is likened to DOCTRINE or to TEACHING. So what God sent down from heaven was His SPOKEN word that He Himself put into the mouth of His Prophet, the Son of MAN, Jesus, to speak the words of his God in Yahweh the Father's NAME. Psalm 78:24. “And had RAINED down manna upon them to eat, and had given them of the corn of heaven.” Remember Jesus saying that he is that bread of life came down from heaven when the Jews asked him for a SIGN like Moses gave them BREAD from heaven when he made it rain down MANNA? John 6:27-35. “Labor not (Or work not) for the meat which perishes, but (Rather, work or labor) for that meat which endures unto everlasting life, which the Son of MAN shall give unto you: FOR (Or because) him, has God the Father sealed. 28. Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? (To receive this eternal life) 29. Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that you BELIEVE him whom he has sent (Or in order to receive eternal life in the world to come you must believe not only on Jesus whom Yahweh, God the Father COMMISSIONED, but always you must believe and OBEY the TEACHINGS of Jesus under the NEW COVENANT written in the New Testament. Please notice that it says to believe HIM whom God has commissioned and NOT just merely believe ON him) 30. They said, therefore, unto him, What sign show you then, that we may see, and believe YOU? What do you work? 31. Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them BREAD FROM HEAVEN to eat. (Please read the PROPHECY written in Exodus 16:4 “Then said the LORD unto Moses, Behold, I will rain BREAD from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a certain rate every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law, or no.”) 32. Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father gives you the TRUE BREAD from heaven. (So the manna from God was a FIGURE of Jesus being the TEACHING sent down from heaven from God) 33. For the bread of God is he which comes down from heaven and gives life unto the world. (Now in truth, according to the WHOLE word of God, it was the “logos” the word, the spoken SAYING of God, that came down from heaven FIRST and became FLESH, and then that flesh, the Son of MAN, Jesus, DURING the days of his FLESH was given the words of Yahweh to be TAUGHT to the world so that whosoever BELIEVES in Jesus and obey his WORDS or his TEACHINGS might be saved. And then, it WILL yet be in the future, AT the second coming of Jesus, that the Son of MAN will be descending down from heaven and he will give eternal life unto those of us who BELIEVE and obey the teachings of Jesus written in the New Testament under the New covenant) 34. Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this BREAD. 35. And Jesus said unto them, I am the BREAD of life: he that comes to me shall never hunger, and he that believes on me shall never thirst.” Again, HOW did the bread of life come down from heaven? Remember the prophecies, which are a TYPE and shadow or figure of the TRUE BREAD coming down for heaven to EAT. The prophecies say that it will RAIN down from heaven. So what is the significance of the word “RAIN”? We will get to this in just a moment when we read Isaiah 55:1-11, which is a prophecy of the Messiah Jesus. Some of you may already know that the early and later RAIN speaking of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit who leads and guides us into all truth. But first, after just seeing, according to the Bible itself, that the Greek word “logos” in John 1:1 is not a separate person who was with Yahweh, WHY would anyone INTERPRET John 1:1 as a separate person unless they NEEDED to do so to try and support the doctrine of the Trinity? For you see, the “logos” was the word, as in, the SAYING of Almighty God Yahweh which came forth out from the mouth of God, and that spoken word of PROPHECY became FLESH. So I want you to ask yourself the question, “Did a pre-existing God the Son, the second person of the Trinity come down from heaven and manifest himself to become the Son of man and remain the fully Almighty God himself having two natures, one divine, and one human at the same time during the days of his FLESH?” If you say yes, then could you please show me the prophecies in the Old Testament prophesying that God would send God the Son down from heaven to become flesh and remain the fully divine Almighty God in the flesh. And also if you can find one would you show me any verse in the entire Bible that teaches us that Jesus, the Son of man, was fully the Almighty God and fully a human being having two natures, one divine, and one human at the same time? Or, in TRUTH, did Almighty God send His SPOKEN word of PROPHECY by His messenger, the angel Gabriel, down out of heaven into the earth who then SPOKE God's word to the Virgin Mary of what would come to be FULFILLED? Let us see what the Bible itself teaches us. Please read Luke 1:26-38. “And in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, 27. TO a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary. 28. And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, you that are highly favored, the Lord is with you: blessed are you among women. 29. And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be. 30. And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for you have found favor with God. 31. And (Said further), behold, you shall conceive in your womb, and bring forth a son, and shall call his name JESUS. 32. He SHALL BE great, and SHALL BE CALLED the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall GIVE unto him the throne of his father David: 33. And he SHALL REIGN over the house of Jacob forever; and of his kingdom, there shall be no end. 34. Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? (Notice that the angel Gabriel did NOT say he was God the Son and that he was going to incarnate himself in her womb. The angel Gabriel did NOT say God the Son will come upon you and be conceived in your womb) 35. And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon you, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow you: THEREFORE, also, that holy thing which shall be born of you shall be called the Son of God. (Or for this very reason that the Holy Spirit IS the Father of your firstborn child is why he SHALL BE called the Son OF God. So the NAME of the Holy Spirit is the FATHER. For all the Scriptures for why the Holy Spirit IS the Father please read the study “WHY THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE FATHER!”) 36. And, behold, your cousin Elisabeth, she has also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren. 37. For with God nothing shall be impossible. 38. And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to your word. And the angel departed from her.” Now, we know that Mary BELIEVED the word of God that was spoken to her by the angel Gabriel from what her cousin Elizabeth said to Mary in Luke 1:45. Luke 1:45. “And blessed is she that BELIEVED: for there shall be a PERFORMANCE of those things which were TOLD her from the Lord.” Yahweh PERFORMS His own spoken word of PROPHECY. So the word in John 1:1 is God’s spoken word of PROPHECY come to pass to be fulfilled in Jesus. What God has spoken in prophecy shall come to pass. The PROPHECIES of the Son of MAN being conceived in the womb of a woman have already come to pass proving the Jesus IS the MESSIAH, the ANOINTED servant of Almighty God Yahweh who alone is the Father. To say this another way, Jesus is the FULFILMENT of the word of PROPHECY and the END of the prophecy is for there to be a God who will rule FOR Yahweh in the world to come. So to ME, A God was manifest in the flesh as opposed to the Almighty God manifesting Himself in the flesh. Please read the study “1 TIMOTHY 3:17 GOD MANIFEST IN THE FLESH!” But for now, let us continue with this study on the days of his FLESH. Please read Jeremiah 31:22. “How long will you go about, O you backsliding daughter? for the LORD has CREATED a NEW THING in the earth, A woman shall compass a man.” Remember that the angel Gabriel said that Holy THING which will be BORN of you shall be called the Son of God? Yahweh prophesied that he was going to do NEW THINGS on the earth. In the Old Testament, Yahweh never SHARED His glory but Yahweh did a NEW THING in the New Testament. Yahweh SHARED His glory with the Son of MAN, Jesus. In the Old Testament, there was no one WITH Yahweh on the throne but in the New Testament, Yahweh is doing a NEW THING. Yahweh is sharing His throne with the now GLORIFIED Son of MAN, Jesus. Compare this prophecy of Jesus in Jeremiah 31:32 with another prophecy of Jesus also found in Jeremiah the prophet. Please read Jeremiah 1:5-10, which while God is speaking to Jeremiah who is also a prophet these words are a hidden prophecy of Jesus the Messiah, which Jesus read when he was a child. Jeremiah 1:5-10. “Before I FORMED YOU in the BELLY (Speaking of the womb of a woman which COMPASSED the MAN, the NEW THING which Yahweh CREATED in the womb of the Virgin Mary through his SPOKEN word of SAYING that CAME FORTH OUT FROM his mouth, who was born and now grown to be a CHILD to whom God is speaking to while the child Jesus is reading the Scriptures that speak of HIM as being the CHRIST who shall be called the Son of God. And God is saying to the Son of man Jesus as a child saying) I knew you; and before you came forth out of the womb I SANCTIFIED thee, and I ORDAINED you a prophet unto the NATIONS. (Plural of nations speaking of all the nations of the world. Jeremiah was a prophet to the one nation Israel) 6. Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child. 7. But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for you shall go to all that I shall send you, and whatsoever I command you you shall speak. 8. Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with you to deliver you, says the LORD. 9. Then the LORD put forth his hand and touched my mouth. And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in your mouth. 10. See, I have this day set YOU over the NATIONS and over the KINGDOMS, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.” Now some Christians will not accept what they are reading directly from the word of God that the Son of MAN Jesus was CREATED by Yahweh through Yahweh’s SPOKEN word which CAME FORTH OUT FROM God. Jesus himself told us that he CAME FORTH OUT FROM God. Please read John 16:27.28. “For the Father, Himself loves you, because you have loved me, and (Because) have believed that I CAME OUT FROM God. 28. I CAME FORTH FROM the Father, and am come into the world: (Did not the very disciples of Jesus teach the VIRGIN BIRTH? Yes, they did. And HOW did THEY say Jesus was conceived in the womb? Did the Apostles and the disciples of Jesus say that God the Son came down from heaven and entered into the womb of the Virgin Mary? NO, they did NOT. But rather, they taught us that the word of Yahweh was SPOKEN to the angel Gabriel and then God sent down the angel Gabriel to the Virgin Mary. Then the angel Gabriel SPOKE the word of God to the Virgin Mary and when Mary BELIEVED the SPOKEN word or the spoken SAYING of God then the spoken word of prophecy became FLESH) again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.” Now let us read Isaiah 55:10,11 first and then we will read the whole context so you can clearly see that this is a PROPHECY of Jesus the Messiah and not just any prophecy but a prophecy teaching us directly from the Bible ITSELF as to HOW Jesus came into being. Isaiah 55:10,11. “For AS the RAIN COMES DOWN, and the snow FROM HEAVEN, (Remember the MANNA that was like frost, or perhaps similar to snowflakes that God promised to RAIN DOWN FROM HEAVEN for them to EAT. So one of the purposes for the rain coming down was to provide BREAD for the EATER. And only those who eat the Manna or bread from heaven will live. With that in mind, God is giving us an analogy or His spoken word of prophecy word coming down from heaven AS the RAIN to be FULFILLED) and returns not thither, but waters the earth, and makes it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, (God’s word is likened to being SEED for the sower. Recall the parable of the sower and how Jesus said if we do not understand this parable then how can we understand anything he teaches us) and BREAD to the EATER: (Jesus is the TRUE BREAD that one MUST EAT in order to have eternal life abiding in them) 11. So shall (Or in a like manner as rain provides BREAD to give life to the EATER so shall) MY WORD BE that goes FORTH OUT OF my MOUTH: IT (Referring to Yahweh’s spoken word that came forth out from God as his word of PROPHECY that came down out of heaven and was PERFORMED by Yahweh to become FLESH) shall not return unto me VOID, but IT (The prophesied word of Yahweh) shall accomplish that which I please, and IT (God’s spoken word or SAYING that became FLESH) shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent IT.” So what God SENT down from out of heaven down to the earth and into the world was His spoken word of PROPHECY that came forth OUT FROM God just like Jesus said. And then Yahweh PERFORMED His own word of prophecy to be FULFILLED. Now, I myself believe that the translators got it correct in Isaiah 55:11 by translating the pronoun use referring back to the word spoken out of God's mouth as IT as opposed to the pronoun “he”. You can click on the link Biblestudytools.com and read all the translations for yourself to see that they all use the pronoun IT when referring back to the word. Just type in Isaiah 55:11 in the search bar and click find, then click on compare. Now let us read Isaiah 55:1-11. “Ho, everyone that thirsts, come you to the waters, and he that has no money; come you, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. (This is the call of the gospel to come to God’s Son to drink of the living water to never thirst again and eat the TRUE bread of eternal life) 2. Wherefore do you spend money for that which is not BREAD? And you labor (Or WORK) for that which satisfies not? hearken diligently unto me, and EAT that which is good, (Or EAT the TRUE BREAD which will satisfy you with eternal life. Remember the teaching of Jesus about him being the TRUE BREAD which came down from heaven. Remember Jesus said that the Scriptures spoke of HIM) and let your soul delight itself in fatness. 3. Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. (The ONLY WAY to the Father Yahweh is through FAITH in his SON Jesus whom Yahweh established a NEW and everlasting covenant in the shed blood of HIS Salvation, his Messiah, the Son of MAN Jesus) 4. Behold, I have given HIM for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people. 5. Behold, YOU (Now Yahweh is speaking TO the Son of MAN who he has chosen and ANOINTED as Jesus is reading the Scriptures which he knows are speaking of him) shall call a nation that you know not, and nations that knew not you shall run unto you (Speaking of the Gentile nations) because of the LORD YOUR God, and for (Or TO) the Holy One of Israel; for (Or BECAUSE) he has glorified you. (Or because Yahweh GLORIFIED the Son of MAN Jesus the Gentiles run unto BOTH Yahweh and his NOW eternal SON Jesus the Holy One, who shall be the Holy One of Israel as well when they finally see Jesus as their Messiah. The LITERAL translation says “TO” rather than “for” which makes a huge difference in how one interprets verse 5 which is yet another hidden prophecy of Jesus the Messiah who became the Holy One of Israel) 6. Seek you the LORD while he may be found, call you upon him while he is near: 7. Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. (Now Yahweh changes to HOW He will bring the Son of MAN into existence and that He will ANOINT as His chosen servant to be made both His Christ and Lord.) 8. For my THOUGHTS (God’s PLAN of salvation BEGAN with his THOUGHTS) are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, says the LORD. 9. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my THOUGHTS than your thoughts. (In other words, your human thoughts may not understand Yahweh’s thoughts and his ways of how he created all things through his SPOKEN words coming forth out from his mouth. And your human thoughts may not understand why Yahweh chose to create a MAN child in the womb of a Virgin through his spoken word, whom he would highly exalt to BECOME his ETERNAL SON. But we should believe Yahweh’s word which teaches us that all things are possible with God) 10. For AS the RAIN COMES DOWN, and the snow from heaven, and returns not thither, but (Accomplishes what God sent it to do. It) waters the earth and makes it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and BREAD to the EATER: 11. So shall MY WORD BE (Or so shall my spoken word BECOME FLESH) that goes FORTH OUT OF my MOUTH: IT (Referring to Yahweh’s spoken word that came forth out from God as his word of PROPHECY that came down out of heaven and was PERFORMED by Yahweh to become FLESH) shall not return unto me void, but IT (The prophesied word of Yahweh) shall accomplish that which I please, and IT (God’s spoken word or SAYING that became FLESH) shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent IT.” Remember that Jesus himself said that he CAME OUT FROM God and Jesus knew the Scriptures spoke of HIM. Jesus being a Jew spoke Hebrew so he saw all the HIDDEN prophecies speaking of him. So Jesus knew that this passage of Scripture was a hidden prophecy speaking of him the Son of MAN coming into existence through the SPOKEN word that CAME FORTH OUT FROM God. Let us now read the LITERAL translation that has the pronouns referring back to the spoken word that came forth out of the MOUTH of Yahweh as being the pronoun “he”. But keep in mind that the word was an IT as being the spoken word or prophecy that was prophesied to BECOME a “he” after the word of prophecy was FULFILLED. Isaiah 55:11. “So HE IS BECOMING word of me which HE is going forth from MOUTH of me, (Or word of me going forth from MOUTH of me IS BECOMING he. And) not to me HE is returning empty, but rather, HE does which I desire and he prospers which I sent HIM.” Now again, it was AFTER the spoken word or saying came forth out from the mouth of God, that the IT became a “he”. For you see AFTER God spoke His word of prophecy then that spoken word or SAYING of God was performed by Yahweh to be made FLESH or made to become that human being, the Son of MAN. That is when the spoken word of prophecy became a “he” who was brought into existence where it, that Holy THING miraculously formed in the womb of Mary never existed before as a LITERAL separate being from Yahweh. The angel Gabriel prophesied that the holy THING that would be BORN of Mary would become great and would be CALLED the Son of God who never existed before except in the THOUGHTS and PLAN of Yahweh to one day have a Son He could truly TRUST to no rebel against Him. Luke 1:35 says “THEREFORE” or for this very reason that the Holy Spirit IS the FATHER of your firstborn child is WHY he SHALL be called the Son of God. In other words, there was NO Son of God in the eternity past. God STARTED with a HUMAN child first and the God HIGHLY EXALTED His HUMAN child to BECOME a God under Himself to rule FOR Him in the world to come for 1000 years. Please read the three-part study “WHEN DID JESUS BECOME GOD'S ETERNAL SON?” So then, we all agree that the Bible itself says that the word was made FLESH. But yet, the Oneness Pentecostal Christians and the Trinitarian Christians believe that the word was made FLESH BUT was ALSO fully Almighty God at the SAME time. And thus, both the Oneness and the Trinitarian Christians teach that Jesus had TWO natures at the SAME time during the days of his FLESH. But what does the Bible ITSELF teach us in SIMPLICITY? #1. The Bible ITSELF states that the word was made FLESH with no interpretation needed? Or should we read INTO John 1:1-14 our own personal interpretation to INTERPRET John 1:14 to mean that the word was made flesh BUT yet REMAINED the fully Almighty God at the SAME time having TWO natures at the SAME time, one divine, and one human? Now, to ME, that interpretation raises the following QUESTION. #2. Was the word made FLESH intended by the writers of the New Testament to mean that the word was God the Son who became flesh, as in, a God-man being fully the Almighty God himself and a human being at the SAME time having TWO natures, one divine, and one human, at the SAME time like the doctrine of the Trinity and the doctrine of Oneness teach? It is actually the doctrine of the Deity of Jesus that teaches the TWO natures of Jesus at the SAME time during the days of his FLESH but both the Oneness and Trinity Christians teach the doctrine of the Deity of Jesus. Now to ME, if so be, that the writers of the New Testament INTENDED THEIR words to mean choice #2 that Jesus had TWO natures at the SAME time then it would seem logical that they would have stated their intended meaning more clearly in the same WAY that Trinitarians and Oneness believers dogmatically teach today. I mean, if you are a Oneness believer, the leaders of your church denomination leave NO DOUBT in their teaching that Jesus IS the FATHER. So WHY did the disciples of Jesus who wrote the New Testament NOT do the SAME and come straight out and boldly proclaim that Jesus IS the FATHER? Think this through for YOURSELF. Does that make SENSE to you that we should find the Oneness teach as clear and plain in the Bible as the Oneness churches teach? Does it not seem strange to you that nowhere in the entire Bible is Jesus ever taught to be Yahweh the one true and only Almighty God the Father Himself as a statement of FACT with absolutely NO interpretation needed? And if you are a Trinitarian believer, the leaders of your church leave NO DOUBT in their teaching that Jesus is the second person of the Godhead Trinity who was sent down from heaven to become flesh but yet remained the fully divine Almighty God having TWO natures, one divine, and one human, at the SAME time. So WHY did the disciples of Jesus who wrote the New Testament NOT do the SAME and come straight out and boldly proclaim that Jesus IS God the Son, the second person of the Godhead Trinity? I mean, to ME, bells and whistles went off with red flags waving in my face saying wake up and THINK for yourself, WHY did the writers of the New Testament NOT teach EXACTLY what the church denominations of today are teaching? Why do you think that there are so many different church denominations? It is because of the many different INTERPRETATIONS that are being read into certain verses to try and prove the many different THEORIES of the philosophies of MAN. And some of these theories have to be explained as MYSTERIES that must be believed or you are not truly saved. And since no one wants to be lost, they simply blindly accept what they are being dogmatically demanded to believe, or else they would not be true Christians. With what I have shared thus far as to what God has shown ME through His written word I leave it to you to decide who Jesus was DURING the days of his FLESH. Not who Jesus is NOW after the cross being highly exalted and glorified by his God and Father to become God’s ETERNAL SON after being GIVEN the divine nature of immortality to be having by his God and Father who has always had immortality in Himself being the SOURCE and giver of all life. But who was Jesus DURING the days of his FLESH? Again, the question and purpose of this study in God’s word is to learn from the Bible ITSELF who Jesus WAS DURING the days of his FLESH which were the days starting when Jesus was conceived in the womb of the Virgin Mary through the SPOKEN word of Yahweh to the CROSS and resurrection of the Son of MAN Jesus before the Son of MAN ascended up into heaven right after God raised him from the dead and Jesus told Mary Magdalene NOT to TOUCH him BECAUSE he had NOT YET ASCENDED to his God and Father. Those are the days of his FLESH. I mean, if so be that there are NO days of his FLESH, then why does the Bible ITSELF even mention the days of his FLESH? Please read Hebrews 5:4-10. “And no MAN takes this honor unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron. 5. So also Christ glorified not himself to be made a high priest; but he that said unto him, You are my Son, TODAY have I BEGOTTEN you. (Jesus became the BEGOTTEN Son of God on the very DAY that the Son of MAN, Jesus was GLORIFIED and made our high priest. This was when Jesus came to be in the FORM of God, according to Philippians 2:6-11. But before Jesus became a Deity he was fully human void of any divine nature. So from his virgin birth to the cross were the days of his FLESH) 6. As he said also in another place, You are a priest forever after the order of Melchisedec. 7. Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto Him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared; 8. Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; 9. And being MADE PERFECT, he BECAME the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; 10. Called of God a high priest after the order of Melchisedec.” Please read John 20:15-20. “Jesus said unto her, Woman, why weep you? Whom seek you? She, supposing him to be the gardener, said unto him, Sir, if you have borne him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away. 16. Jesus said unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and said unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master. 17. Jesus said unto her, TOUCH ME NOT; FOR (Or BECAUSE) I am NOT YET ASCENDED to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ASCEND unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God. 18. Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken these things unto her. 19. Then the SAME DAY at EVENING, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and said unto them, Peace be unto you. 20. And when he had so said, he showed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord.” Please notice that on the very SAME DAY that the just risen, Son of MAN appeared first to Mary Magdalene in the MORNING. Then notice that Jesus specifically told Mary Magdalene NOT to TOUCH him BECAUSE he had NOT YET ASCENDED to the Father telling her to go and tell his brethren that he is ascending to his God and Father. Then Jesus also appeared to his disciples on that very SAME DAY in the EVENING and this time Jesus says HANDLE me or TOUCH me to see for yourself that I am NOT a SPIRIT because spirits do not have FLESH and BONE as you SEE that I have. Jesus was showing his disciples that he was alive forevermore never to die again. In other words, Jesus was showing his disciples that God GAVE to him ETERNAL LIFE and also HIGHLY EXALTED him to become a God to rule for Yahweh the Father in the world to come for 1000 years and that they would also rule and reign WITH him. Now we have to read another account of the gospels to get the whole of what the disciples are teaching us. Please read Luke 24:36-51. “And as they thus spoke, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and said unto them, Peace be unto you. 37. But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit. 38. And he said unto them, Why are you troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts? 39. Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: HANDLE ME, and SEE; for (Or because) a spirit has not FLESH and BONES, as you SEE ME HAVE. (Now anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear should be able to see and understand that from the time that very SAME DAY in the MORNING that Jesus specifically told Mary Magdalene to NOT TOUCH him BECAUSE he had NOT YET ASCENDED to the Father to the time that very SAME DAY in the EVENING when Jesus specifically told his disciples TO HANDLE him or TOUCH him so they could see for themselves that he was NOT a SPIRIT risen from the dead. But rather, it was he himself whom God raised from the dead and had given him a NEW GLORIFIED IMMORTAL body of FLESH and BONES that will never die again. For you see, after being glorified, life is no longer in the physical blood of the body to give it physical MORTAL life only. But rather, Yahweh has now highly exalted the Son of Man Jesus and has GIVEN to him the divine nature of IMMORTAL life to BE HAVING in himself EVEN AS the Father has always had IMMORTALITY in himself being the SOURCE of all life. So WHEN did Yahweh the Father GIVE the Son of MAN life to be having in himself even as the Father has life in himself? Well, to ME, it is crystal clear of the WHEN the Son of MAN was GIVEN eternal life and that was WHEN Jesus ASCENDED to his God and Father right AFTER he told Mary Magdalene to NOT TOUCH him BECAUSE he had NOT YET ASCENDED to the Father) 40. And when he had thus spoken, he showed them his hands and his feet. (The fact of the disciples TOUCHING Jesus or that Jesus is NOW telling his disciples that it was alright to go ahead and TOUCH him NOW proves that Jesus ascended into heaven the every same day God resurrected him and then the Son of MAN, Jesus descended back down from heaven to show himself alive forevermore. In other words, Jesus ASCENDED to the Father to be given a new immortal body and has DESCENDED down from heaven from the Father to show by many infallible PROOFS that he was ALIVE forevermore. This is the first proof that God raised His human Son Jesus from the dead and gave him eternal life never to suffer and die again. Remember that Jesus did this for FORTY days before he ascended back into heaven where the Son of MAN was before to receive his new glorified immortal body. And Jesus is in heaven today awaiting his RETURN) 41. And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, (The disciples seemed as if they were not yet fully convinced that Jesus was not a spirit. We are not told that the disciples of Jesus actually proved to themselves by reaching out and TOUCHING Jesus, but rather we are told that Jesus asked them to TOUCH him and SEE that he was NOT a spirit. So Jesus gave them ANOTHER proof that he was NOT a spirit) he said unto them, Have you here any meat? 42. And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb. 43. And he took it, and DID EAT BEFORE them. (Spirits that do not have bodies do not eat. I say this because some Christians claim that Jesus manifested himself a body. But the Bible itself says that for forty days Jesus showed himself ALIVE forevermore by many infallible proofs and he said that he is NOT a SPIRIT) 44. And he said unto them, These are the words which I spoke unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me. 45. Then opened he their understanding, (During the next forty days. Remember that Thomas was NOT there to see for himself that Jesus was alive forevermore never to suffer and die again) that they might understand the scriptures, (And even after the forty days Jesus had MUCH MORE to teach them and he said that after he ascended he would teach them more THROUGH the Holy Spirit the things that they could NOT bear right now) 46. And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: 47. And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. 48. And you are witnesses of these things. 49. And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry you in the city of Jerusalem until YOU be endued with power from on high. (To be where I am now, or more precisely, to be where Jesus WAS DURING his MINISTRY being ANOINTED with the Holy Spirit and POWER. Remember John chapter 14-16 where Jesus teaches us about the Holy Spirit being WITH them but he SHALL be IN them? Peter was a coward BEFORE the Holy Spirit came to DWELL IN the believers in Jesus. But AFTER Peter was FILLED to overflowing with the Holy Spirit, he spoke BOLDLY to the crowd that was mocking the disciples saying that they were drunk. And God confirmed the word of the true gospel by saving three thousand Jews who were added to the church) 50. And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them. 51. And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.” Now when we read this passage of Scripture ALONE and APART from the REST of God’s word, then one could wrongly interpret this passage of Scripture as saying that it says right here in the Bible that Jesus only ascended ONE time right after God raised him from the dead on the very SAME day. But we KNOW that this would be an INCORRECT interpretation because another verse clearly teaches us that Jesus showed his disciple many proofs for FORTY DAYS that he was alive forevermore never to die again. And that is why we must be sure to consider the WHOLE word of God to make sure that what we conclude or interpret a verse to mean agrees with the rest of God's word. Please read Acts 1:1-9. “The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus BEGAN both to do and teach, (Remember that Jesus also said that he had much more to say to his disciples that they were not yet able to bear until AFTER they received to Holy Spirit to come and DWELL IN them to empower them as the eternal Spirit DWELLING IN the Son of MAN Jesus empowered Jesus to live without sin and do the works men saw the Son of MAN do. So before his ascension into heaven Jesus only BEGAN to teach his disciples) 2. Until the day in which he was taken up, AFTER THAT (Or AFTER the Son of MAN Jesus ascended into heaven he continued to TEACH his disciples) that he THROUGH the Holy Ghost had given commandments (Or to give charge) unto the apostles whom he had chosen: (Jesus DIRECTS or leads and guides us THROUGH the Holy Spirit DWELLING in us who gives us charge to do this and to not do that. So this is speaking of commands written upon our heart through the Holy Spirit dwelling in us. To say this another way, Jesus was still yet TEACHING his disciples THROUGH the Holy Spirit after he ascended into heaven) 3. To whom also he showed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them FORTY days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God: 4. And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, said he, you have heard of me. (Written for us to read in John chapters 13-16. Please read the study “THE POWER AND THE AUTHORITY OF BELIEVERS!”) 5. For John truly baptized with water; but you shall be baptized (Completely submerged or filled to OVERFLOWING) with the Holy Ghost not many days hence. 6. When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, will you at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? 7. And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father has put in HIS OWN power. 8. But you shall receive POWER, (The SAME power that I had when I was with you given to me of the Father when I was ANOINTED at my baptism in water AND the Holy Spirit. So wait until YOU are endued with this same POWER) after that the Holy Ghost has come upon YOU: and you shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. 9. And WHEN he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.” So then, clearly the Son of MAN Jesus ASCENDED TWICE after God raised him from the dead. The FIRST time was on the very SAME DAY that God raised him from the dead right after he specifically told Mary Magdalene to NOT TOUCH HIM BECAUSE HE HAD NOT YET ASCENDED to heaven. Then Jesus told Marly Magdalene, go now Mary and tell my brethren that I ASCEND to my God and Father. Then the second time that the Son of MAN, Jesus ascending into heaven was FORTY DAYS LATER after he showed himself ALIVE forevermore saying TOUCH ME. Now to ME, something had to happen that very day early in the morning that Jesus was raised from the dead for Jesus to specifically state to Mary Magdalene to NOT TOUCH him and then turn right around on that SAME day in the evening and specifically told his disciples TO TOUCH him to SEE that he was NOT a spirit and that he was ALIVE forevermore. Now here is what I myself believe happened. Jesus ASCENDED just like he said he would to his God and Father and while he was in heaven Yahweh the father HIGHLY EXALTED the Son of MAN by GIVING Jesus the divine nature of IMMORTALITY to be HAVING in himself EVEN AS the Father has always had immortality in himself being the self-existing one who ONLY has always possessed immortality in himself UNTIL he GAVE the Son of MAN to be HAVING life in himself EVEN AS the Father has life in himself. Please read John 5:26,27. “For AS the Father HAS LIFE IN himself; SO has he GIVEN TO the Son TO HAVE life in himself; 27. AND has GIVEN him authority to execute judgment ALSO BECAUSE he is the Son of MAN.” I mean, I do not know how the disciples of Jesus could have made it any plainer than this that the Son of MAN was GIVEN the divine nature of IMMORTALITY to be HAVING in himself even as the Father HAS life in himself. And to make absolutely sure we understand this TRUTH they ALSO wrote down for us in 1 Timothy 6:13-16 in order to teach that ONLY the INVISIBLE and ONLY Sovereign or Almighty God has always possessed IMMORTALITY. Please read 1 Timothy 6:13-16. “I give you CHARGE (Which means to transmit a message that was CHARGED to him or enjoined to him to be giving or ENJOINING to others and not to keep to himself) in the sight of God, who quickens (Or who give life to all things) all things, AND before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession; (Please see Matthew 26:63,64 which I will explain in a moment but for now the witness or testimony of Jesus was that he was the Son of MAN whom God ANOINTED. So the Apostle Paul is CHARGING to us with what he was charged with by Jesus through the Holy Spirit before TWO witnesses who are Almighty God the Father and His ANOINTED Son of MAN Jesus) 14. That YOU (Speaking of ALL believers in Jesus) KEEP THIS commandment WITHOUT spot, (Or without error) unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: 15. Which in his times (Speaking of BOTH the days of his FLESH and when the Son of MAN returns) he shall show, WHO is the blessed and ONLY Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; (Remember that the Son of MAN Jesus was COMMISSION or ANOINTED by his God and Father to SHOW us the FATHER.) 16. WHO ONLY has IMMORTALITY, dwelling in the light which no man (Or no mortal man) can approach unto, (For you see, mortal flesh and blood can not enter heaven. Certainly, Moses was near or close to Yahweh and seen His backside but he would have died if he would have approached Yahweh too closely to see God, as in, seeing Him in His full glory. But rather, it was Yahweh who was the one who “approached” Moses while PROTECTING Moses with His hand so that Moses could only see His back parts. So then, it was Yahweh the Father) whom no man has seen, nor can see: (Again, men have indeed seen the Son of MAN Jesus even after God gave the Son of MAN the same immortal life to be HAVING in himself even as the FATHER has immortality in Himself) to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen.” Now if the dogmatic demanding Oneness believers and Trinitarian Christians who insist to argue that John 5:26,27 means that it was only the HUMAN NATURE that the Son of MAN was given immortality to be having in himself even as the FATHER has in himself, then have them show you where in the Bible ITSELF that the so-called TWO natures at the SAME time of Jesus doctrine is plainly taught by the disciples of Jesus. For you see, it was the disciples of Jesus who wrote the New Testament for us to teach the SAME things that they were taught by Jesus himself. And I find NOWHERE in the Bible are we taught that the Son of MAN, Jesus had TWO natures, one divine, and one human, at the SAME time. And if the dogmatic Trinitarian believers argue that John 5:26,27 means that the Son of MAN was GIVEN eternal life in eternity past, then ask them how an eternal God the Son could DIE seeing that God the Father could NOT die? Show them that their man-made doctrine of the Trinity took centuries to form. Show them that the doctrine of the Trinity falls apart because, according to the Bible itself, they have NO eternal divine Son who has always existed without having a beginning being CO-ETERNAL with God the Father. The simple plainly stated FACT in the Bible ITSELF that clearly teaches us that the Son of MAN was GIVEN immortality proves that Jesus did NOT pre-exist as God the eternal Son who was with God at his side from all eternity past having NO BEGINNING. The word made FLESH is God’s SPOKEN “logos” his SAYING, his SPEECH that came out from within himself being a THOUGHT before that thought was SPOKEN into existence. Jesus was CREATED, FORMED, and MADE to be FLESH in the WOMB of the Virgin Mary through the SPOKEN word of POWER of the ONE eternal Spirit who IS the ONE eternal invisible living God who is always clearly identified as being the FATHER by the disciples of Jesus who were taught directly by Jesus himself. Jesus knew the Scriptures spoke of him as he told us plainly that he CAME OUT FROM God. The TRUE BREAD is the TEACHING which came down from heaven by way of the eternal Spirit who came down from heaven to DWELL IN the Son of MAN to COMMISSION him to teach people the words of YAHWEH, his God and Father, Yahweh the eternal Spirit, put them in his mouth to speak. A small child can understand this SIMPLE gospel message. But some Oneness believers and Trinitarian believers are wondering WHY their doctrines are being challenged? I will tell you why. It is because it is PROPHESIED in the Scriptures that the CHILD born would be called by the NAME the mighty God WHEN the government shall be laid upon his shoulders. So to me, John 1:1c is a PROPHECY of A God coming into being after the cross. Please read 2 Timothy 3:7-10. “Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the TRUTH. (Not because they cannot come to the knowledge of the truth, but because they RESIST the TRUTH) 8. Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also RESIST the TRUTH: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the FAITH. 9. But they SHALL proceed no further: for their folly shall be MANIFEST (Or clearly shown to be FALSE teaching and NOT SOUND Biblical teaching) unto all men, as theirs also was. (Or as their false doctrine was taught to all men in the LAST DAYS) 10. But YOU have fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,” Timothy taught what Jesus and the Apostles of Jesus taught. Timothy did NOT teach what the so-called church fathers taught, which teachings are often quoted by the Roman Catholic church to try and support their man-made doctrine of the Trinity. Do your own research and study as to when the man-made doctrine of the DUAL NATURE of Jesus came into existence. For you see, this doctrine of the so-called two natures of Jesus at the same time during the days of his FLESH is now being used to try and explain away all the QUESTIONS being put forth to expose the errors of the doctrine of the Trinity. So rather than the Oneness and Trinitarian Christians confronting these questions honestly by truly considering that they could be wrong they CLAIM that it was only the HUMAN nature of Jesus that died on the cross, It was only the human nature of Jesus that did not know the day of the hour when the Father did know that day and the hour. And Trinitarians Christians CLAIM that it was only the HUMAN nature of Jesus that was NOT co-equal with Almighty God the Father. And it was only the human nature of Jesus that did indeed have a BEGINNING. In other words, when they could NOT explain the Scriptures that exposed their man-made doctrines as being false teaching then they just simply INVENTED another man-made doctrine to explain away these questions exposing the man-made doctrines. Again, keep in mind that the doctrine of the Trinity that took over three centuries to form and be accepted by the majority of Christians by INTIMIDATION of being exiled or excommunicated from the church. And like the Pharisees, the leaders of the Church liked the power they had over the people which thing Jesus hates. Revelation 2:4-17. “Nevertheless, I have somewhat against you because you have LEFT your first love. 5. Remember therefore from whence you are FALLEN, and repent, and do the FIRST works; or else I will come unto you quickly, and will REMOVE your candlestick out of his place, except you repent. 6. But this you have, that you hate the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate. 7. He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says unto the churches; To him that overcomes will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. 8. And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things says the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive; 9. I know your works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but you are rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. 10. Fear none of those things which you shall suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that you may be tried; and you shall have tribulation ten days: be you faithful unto death, and I will give you a crown of life. 11. He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says unto the churches; He that overcomes shall not be hurt of the second death. 12. And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things says he which has the sharp sword with two edges; 13. I know your works, and where you dwell, even where Satan's seat is: and you hold fast my name, and have not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwells. 14. But I have a few things against you because you have there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumbling block before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication. 15. So have you also THEM that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate. 16. Repent; or else I will come unto you quickly, and will fight against THEM with the sword of my mouth. 17. He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says unto the churches; To him that overcomes will I give to EAT of the hidden manna, (The TRUE BREAD of ETERNAL LIFE) and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knows saving he that receives it.” The name “Nicolaitans” is derived from the Greek word “nikolaos”, which is a compound word formed from two Greeks words “nikos” and “laos”. The Greek word “nikos” means to conquer or to subdue. And the Greek word “laos” means the people. This Greek word “laos” is also where we get the word “LAITY”. Does this ring any bells to my Catholic Christian readers? The separation of the LAITY, the common people from the CLERGY is the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which DEEDS and TEACHING Jesus hates. For one thing, Jesus said, call no man your father, and the Roman Catholic Church has RESISTED this TRUTH taught to us in the New Testament that he taught to his disciples who then wrote down as a RECORD so that there would be no confusion as to what Jesus taught. But due to some BIASED translations of the Bible, Satan has managed to continue to DECEIVE some Christians with doctrines of the devil even to our day. Secondly, Jesus hates leaders in the church lording over the brethren. A shepherd is to lead by example and the sheep will follow. But the Roman Catholic Church had to make it a law to FORCE the common people to follow their teachings under the penalty of excommunication of the church, being tortured, and even the penalty of death if they did not recant to confess the doctrine of the Trinity. Sounds like the doctrine of the Nicolaitans to ME. And God has prophesied in His word that he will SCATTER the Shepherds. Please read Ezekiel 34:1-11. “And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 2. Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say unto them, Thus says the Lord GOD unto the shepherds; Woe be to the shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the flocks? 3. You eat the fat, and you clothe you with the wool, you kill them that are fed: but you feed not the flock. 4. The diseased have you not strengthened, neither have you healed that which was sick, neither have you bound up that which was broken, neither have you brought again that which was driven away, neither have you sought that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty have you ruled them. 5. And they were scattered, because there is no shepherd: and they became meat to all the beasts of the field, when they were scattered. 6. My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth, and none did search or seek after them. 7. Therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the LORD; 8. As I live, says the Lord GOD, surely because my flock became a prey, and my flock became meat to every beast of the field, because there was no shepherd, neither did my shepherds search for my flock, but the shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flock; 9. Therefore, O you shepherds, hear the word of the LORD; 10. Thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; for I will deliver my flock from their mouth, that they may not be meat for them. 11. For thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out.” As always I leave it to my readers to decide for themselves what you choose to believe between you and Almighty God. But as for ME, the doctrine of the Trinity is the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, the Roman Catholic Church which FORCED their man-made doctrine upon the sheep. Below is a complete list of all the studies that I have which show WHY I no longer believe in the doctrine of the Trinity and why I can NEVER believe in the doctrine of Oneness. I assure you that every verse that SEEMS to be saying that Jesus pre-existed in eternity past has another meaning that does NOT contradict any other verses of Scripture in the entire Bible. Thanks for reading and may God bless you richly as you CONTINUE to seek the TRUTH of the WHOLE word of Almighty God.
